IPath’s new Cabana shoe is made with 100% hemp uppers.  The stylish cross-over casual shoe is a great summer alternative for skateboarders, eco posers and those possessing a certain level of counterculture savoir faire.

Available in late March @ ipath.com

While we’re on the subject of hemp…when is the U.S. going to approve the legal growth and processing of industrial hemp?  We import hemp-based products from Canada and elsewhere.  Industrial hemp can be grown on unimproved land, with little, or no, pesticides and herbicides.   The weed can be used in the production of paper, textiles, biodegradable plastics and fuel – while saving valuable forests.  Just a thought.
